Collingwood shredded for clickbaiting own fans over Jakob Ryan injury news
Collingwood have been shredded by their own fans after the club used their own injury update as 'clickbait'. The Magpies' social media team posted an image of premiership coach Craig McRae on Tuesday, with a quote, 'He'll miss the rest of the season.' Accompanied with a bandaged head emoji, the tweet (which has since been deleted) read: 'Fly announced this morning a defender will unfortunately miss the remainder of the season.' While most mainstream media outlets often hide details in captions and headlines to encourage readers to click through to an article, fans did not take kindly to the practice being used by an official AFL club. Fans were angered more when they realised the player in question was Jakob Ryan, who has only managed just one game at AFL level way back in 2023. Ryan, who injured his foot in a VFL game, is out with an acute fifth metatarsal fracture and will undergo surgery. And while the injury is sad news for Ryan, using the senior coach to tease it on social media certainly made it seem like a blow for the AFL team that is one of the flag favourites this year. Fans were, needless to say, less than impressed and vented on social media. 'Collingwood admin just clickbaited their own fans for a Jakob Ryan injury update. Incredible,' one fan blasted on X (formerly Twitter). 'Crazy click baiting your fans and members,' another mystified fan said. And another: 'Clickbaiting your own fans! Nice!' And another: 'Seriously click-baiting your own members and fans. Grow up Collingwood.... Unprofessional.' And another raged: 'Guys, you're a football club not the Herald Sun. Just say who it is without the clickbait.' And another: 'Hey social media team, your trying to drive views of your youtube video though clickbait? Really? be better.' 'And I'm swiping the Collingwood footy club, they're taking a leaf out of our book as in the journos,' Cleary said. 'They're clickbaiting their own fans ... You had to click through the link to find out if out who was it.' The 'clickbaiting' certainly didn't catch out everyone, though. AFL great (and former Collingwood champion) Dale Thomas asked: 'Who was it? ... I didn't click.'

EAST COAST WEATHER A vigorous coastal low has formed off Australia's east coast, and it's already bringing a lot of wild weather. Damaging surf, heavy rain and flooding and dangerous winds are what we can expect in the next few days from the vigorous coastal low that's brewing off the east coast of Australia. A coastal low is a type of low-pressure weather system that usually develops on or near the coast. They form when warm air is pulled into the atmosphere and as air goes up, it leaves less air behind, creating a low pressure. This makes nearby air rush in to fill in the space causing wind. And as the rising air cools, it can form clouds and bring rain or storms. This powerful system is already affecting communities with weather warnings in place from Coffs Harbor all the way to Bega. While emergency services are on standby, authorities are urging people in affected areas to be prepared, like tying down loose items outside, having an emergency kit on the go, staying inside and away from windows, and to stay in the loop with latest weather updates. EUROPE HEATWAVE There's a massive heatwave going on right across Europe at the moment. In France, 200 schools will be closed this week due to the heat, and from UK to Germany temps are 5 to 10 degrees higher than usual. In Spain, it's set to be the hottest June on record, and right throughout the continent people are doing what they can to stay cool. Wildfires have also started in some regions, with more than 50,000 people evacuated from their homes in Türkiye. WIMBLEDON STARTS It was also the hottest first day of Wimbledon on record. 33 degrees is what the temperature got to as players sweltered through their first round match ups. World Number 1 Aryna Sabalenka cruised through her first round matchup, while Aussie and 20th seed Alexei Popyrin lost to the world number 461 Arthur Fery. TERRITORY DAY Today is the 1st of July, which means those up north are celebrating Territory Day! That's right, things are about to get loud in the NT, because Territory Day is also known as cracker night. It's the one time each year when Aussies don't need a permit to buy and set off fireworks. But only in the NT, and fireworks can only be launched between 6 and 11pm. It's all in celebration of the day that the Northern Territory was given the right to govern itself. Before that it was the federal government that made laws for people living up here. But as much fun as fireworks can be fun, improper use can cause a lot of problems, like starting fires, scaring animals, and injuring people. Fireworks are explosives, so it's important to follow the safety guidelines like clearing the area of dry materials, having a hose or buckets of water handy, keeping everyone at a safe distance. And making sure your ready for when they go boom. T-REX RACING First up, to the US state of Washington where more than 300 people dressed up as dinosaurs for the annual T-rex world championship races. But the action wasn't just on the ground. Skydiving t-rexes parachuted from a height of 1,500 metres, landing on the track before making a bolt for the finish line. ROLL CLOUD Now to Portugal where beachgoers were stopped in their tracks by this rather ominous roll cloud. Rolls clouds are pretty rare here in Portugal, which is currently going through a heat wave. They form when warm air meets cooler air, sending the warm air up, up into the sky. DONKEY FESTIVAL And finally to donkeys in the small Colombian town of Moniquirá which are taking part in the annual Donkey Contest. Now in it's 19th year, the event started out as a fun way to support local farmers and highlight the important role donkeys have played as their loyal sidekicks. And despite having a reputation for appearing rather stubborn, I've got to say these donkeys seem extremely patient under all these outfits.

Pegula was thrashed 6-2, 6-3 by the world No.116 in just 58 minutes. It was a bitter blow for 2024 US Open finalist Pegula, who has never been past the quarter-finals at the All England Club The 31-year-old played with heavy strapping on her right knee and never looked comfortable in a lacklustre performance. Since losing last year's US Open final against Aryna Sabalenka, world number three Pegula has been eliminated before the quarter-finals in all three of her Grand Slam appearances. It was only Cocciaretto's second win against a top-10 player. Daria Kasatkina and Prscilla Hon were flying the Australian flag in the women's draw to start day two.
